Vyke's wholesale Mobile VoIP deal with Nimbuzz goes live
Vyke today announced that Nimbuzz has gone live with an initial roll-out of its
paid-for mobile VoIP calling service, bringing to fruition a wholesale
relationship with the Netherlands based company Nimbuzz B.V. announced on the
12th March 2009.
The internal test phase of the project has been rolled out this week and is
scheduled for launch to consumers during October and November.
Building upon the component strengths of both Vyke and Nimbuzz, this project
combines Vyke's leading paid mobile VoIP service and Nimbuzz's award winning
free mobile peer to peer mobile social messaging and existing VoIP
services.
The globally available Nimbuzz service is currently growing at
well over 40,000 new users per day and is the only aggregated mobile social
messaging service to win a Red Herring Global 100 award.
This represents
Nimbuzz' first paid-for service and enables both companies to add value to
and monetise Nimbuzz's growing and loyal user base with its VoIP services,
through a revenue sharing model between the two parties.
Kim Berknov, CEO of Vyke, commented: "The teams at both Vyke and Nimbuzz have
worked very hard over the last six months to establish & position a truly unique
value proposition for Mobile VoIP towards Nimbuzz' user base, seamlessly
complementing the mobile social communication services with Vyke's core
competency of paid mobile VoIP"
Evert Jaap Lugt, CEO of Nimbuzz added: "We are extremely excited by this launch.
The rollout of this service with Vyke represents a milestone for our business,
being our first paid-for offering and providing a new and complimentary service
which we are confident Nimbuzz users will value highly."
